🍯 Bee pollen is richer in proteins than any other animal source. It contains more amino acids than beef, eggs or cheese of equal weight. #PollinationFascination 🦋 #AgDay365

Hummingbirds are amazingly adapted pollinators. As they move from plant to plant, they carry pollen. As they pollinate the native wildflowers in parks and the plants in your garden, hummingbirds add a splash of color to our landscapes. #PollinationFascination 🦋 #AgDay365

#Pollination is the movement of pollen from one flower to another flower of the same species to fertilize the plant. As bees 🐝 fly from blossom to blossom 🌸 gathering pollen and nectar, part of the pollen they pick up at one plant brushes off on the next.  🦋 #AgDay365
